    About This Event

    Saxophonist Adam Niewood leads his quartet at Smalls Jazz Club, presenting music that stays close to melody even as improvisation opens up. Active in the city’s bandstand network as both leader and sideman, he favors clean lines and a song‑forward sense of form; the quartet works in the small‑group tradition, moving between standards and originals with an emphasis on ensemble balance and time feel.
